The Inkplate 6 MOTION is a supercharged 6-inch e-paper display with a resolution of 1024×758 pixels and support for partial updates. It offers an accelerated refresh rate of 91 ms (up to 11 frames per second), significantly outperforming other DIY e-paper devices, providing smoother motion, less lag, and sharper updates. It also supports 4-bit grayscale, allowing a total of 16 shades on the screen. Powered by a dual-processor setup, the 32-bit STM32H743 microcontroller and ESP32-C3 co-processor, this versatile display integrates seamlessly into dynamic projects, enabling real-time content for applications like animations, interactive menus, or smart-home interfaces.
Its impressive sensor array includes the LSM6DSO32 accelerometer and gyroscope, Sensirion SHTC3 temperature and humidity sensor, and APDS-9960 gesture and proximity sensor, making it ideal for highly interactive environments. The front-facing RGB programmable LED adds customizable visual indicators, enhancing interactivity. Additional hardware features include a microSD card slot, USB-C programming port, multiple GPIO pins for expansions, RTC, a rotary encoder, and 3 button inputs on the sides. It can be easily expanded using the onboard easyC ecosystem if needed.
The device’s MCP73831 battery charger and low-power design (only 22 μA in low-power mode) ensure long-term performance on battery power. With full support for Arduino, MicroPython, ESPHome, and Home Assistant, as well as numerous ready-to-use examples, developers can quickly integrate the Inkplate 6 MOTION into a variety of projects, from real-time data displays to smart-home systems and digital signage. The Inkplate is, of course, 100% open-source.
Its eco-friendliness, along with high-quality craftsmanship, makes it an ideal choice for anyone looking to build sustainable and innovative electronic projects. The Inkplate 6 MOTION uses screens recycled from old e-book readers, which is extremely environmentally friendly. Although minor damage such as scratches is possible due to the screen recycling, all screens with significant damage are not used in production, ensuring high quality.
